Description

vSphere plugin - SSL configuration is lost with latest build and availability/metrics no longer report

After upgrading the server with the latest build, the Plugin Manager upgraded the vSphere plugin to the latest and the vCenter server was no longer properly configured so availability and metrics were no longer reporting. Restarting the agent had no affect.

When installing a new agent and attempting to re-configure the properties, the properties would not succeed with 'unable to find valid certification path to requested target'.

After upgrading the server, the vSphere plugin was pushed to the agent, the Availability and Metrics for the vCenter server which were previously unreporting unavailable and no metrics started showing as available and collecting metrics.

Upgrading the agent via UI still collected correct availability and metrics. Changes made to the configuration properties were accepted and successfully saved.
